Hi, I'm Ryan Green
and I'm the director of <i>Crosswalk.</i>

2
00:00:04,916 --> 00:00:06,791
<i>What inspired me to make this short</i>

3
00:00:06,875 --> 00:00:11,000
was endless times
standing at a crosswalk sign,

4
00:00:11,083 --> 00:00:13,500
<i>and every time I do,</i>
<i>especially when there's just</i>

5
00:00:13,583 --> 00:00:16,583
<i>no traffic coming in either direction</i>
<i>and I'm standing there,</i>

6
00:00:16,666 --> 00:00:20,166
and I wait and I wait and I wait,
I picture my ancestors,

7
00:00:20,250 --> 00:00:23,916
maybe those that came across
the daunting Atlantic on a boat

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,375
to check in to Ellis Island,

9
00:00:25,458 --> 00:00:29,208
and I just picture them looking at me
and saying, "Dude, what are you doing?"

10
00:00:29,291 --> 00:00:31,291
You're waiting for a sign
to tell you to cross a street

11
00:00:31,375 --> 00:00:32,791
when you can see you can do it.

12
00:00:32,875 --> 00:00:35,208
And I just somehow feel ashamed.
(CHUCKLES)

13
00:00:37,208 --> 00:00:40,125
It's just so annoying and red

14
00:00:40,208 --> 00:00:42,583
and it's just sitting here
telling me not to do things.

00:00:43,916 --> 00:00:47,833

<i>able to do the 2D intro myself,</i>

17
00:00:47,916 --> 00:00:49,250
<i>animate it myself.</i>

18
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:52,250
People should not start
running out into traffic,

19
00:00:52,333 --> 00:00:54,791
this is not an endorsement
to just break the rules

20
00:00:54,875 --> 00:00:57,166
and run through
the middle of the street. Uh...

21
00:00:57,250 --> 00:01:02,375
But I hope that people look at this piece
and see it as the metaphor that it is.

22
00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:07,250
Thanks for coming to watch the short
and I really hope you enjoy it.
